They have nests in the rafters of the rondavels at Addo. They sit on the rafters briefly at evening and then fly off and return. I think they are annoyed at the squatters who inhabit the rondavels for a few days at a time!

Whatever (according to BB): "You are correct but I don't want to admit it".

These birds had a nest at our hut in Biyamiti. Was very nice to hear them the whole time we were there.

I have them perching anually, fact is what am Ilooking at!??? These pictures show a definite boldstreaking below??? When we refer,- Lesser or greater,-is the bird bigger or smaller, or maybe is the streakingof the chest lesser or greater???

It cannot be made more or less for that matter but it can be altered to suit.- The universe.
